Making payroll on time
Pay employees and contractors on schedule even when a major customer pays late.
For established Texas businesses that sell to other businesses: turn the invoices you are waiting on into cash, without taking on a loan.
Most small B2B businesses are not short on customers. They are short on cash because their customers pay on 30, 45 or 60 day terms, while rent, payroll, supplies and taxes are due now. One slow-paying account can turn a profitable month into a stressful one.
Invoice factoring lets you sell those unpaid invoices for an immediate advance. It is not a loan, so there is no new debt on your books, and approval depends mostly on the customers you invoice. It works for service firms, trades, distributors and manufacturers alike.
The cash is yours to use. These are the most common reasons small business owners factor.
Pay employees and contractors on schedule even when a major customer pays late.
Accept a larger contract without worrying how you will carry the costs until the first payment.
Pay vendors early to earn discounts that can offset part of the factoring fee.
Even out cash flow when sales are seasonal or a few big invoices dominate a month.
Use receivables you already own instead of high-cost cash advances or credit cards.
Small business loans can be useful for long-term investments, but they are often slow to approve and require collateral and strong credit. Factoring is built for short-term working capital tied to sales you have already made.
